Come along with Tidbits as we figure out how different breeds of dogs were named!

IT’S A FACT • The Pekingese was bred in the Chinese city of Peking (now called Beijing) and is one of the oldest breeds. It’s one of the breeds most closely related to the wolf, along with the Akita, Malamute, Basenji, and Shar-Pei. • The Shar-Pei is known for its deep wrinkles.

The breed originated in Canton, China. The name means “sand skin” and refers to the texture of its short, rough, wrinkled coat. A SharPei’s tongue is a blue-black color, making it the only other dog besides the Chow Chow that does not have a pink tongue.

• The Corgi originates in Wales. In Welsh, the name means “dwarf-dog” from “cor” meaning dwarf and “gi” meaning dog. Corgis are closely related to Siberian Huskies. Despite their short stature, they were bred as herding dogs. Queen Elizabeth II has owned more than 30 Corgis since she was a young child.

• The Papillon derives its name from the long and fringed hair on the ears that resemble butterfly wings, and the French word for “butterfly” is papillon. They were bred as rat-catchers.

Marie Antoinette owned one who reportedly ran out from under her skirt after she was executed.

• The Great Pyrenees was bred by Basque shep(continued next page)

• The word xenia has a variety of meanings.

To the ancient Greeks, it was the concept of hospitality, generosity, and courtesy shown to those far from home. To the botanist, it’s Pageeffect 2 the of pollen on a seed. And to those in Ohio, it’s the county seat of Greene County, a community about 21 miles (34 km) from Dayton.

• Xystus is an architectural term, referring to a long, covered portico, or main entrance, of ancient Greek gymnasiums. Here, athletes would exercise during inclement weather.

To the Romans, the xystus was the garden walkway in front of the porticoes, where they planted flower beds.

• Physicians are familiar with two unusual “X” words, xyster and xiphisterna. The xyster is a surgical instrument used for scraping bones, while the xiphisterna refers to the cartilage at the lower end of the body’s sternum, that long flat bone located at the center of the chest.

• The Greek word xanthos translates “yellow,” and several of our words use it for a prefix.

Xanthophyll is a yellow pigment found along with cholorophyll in green plants. Plants with yellow stems are xanthopous. To those suffering from the abnormal vision condition known as xanthopsia, everything they see seems to have a yellow hue.

DOG BREEDS (cont’d) herds who inhabited the Pyrenees Mountains of southern France and northern Spain. The Pyrenees Mountains were named for Pyrene, a mythical Greek princess who was raped by Hercules, gave birth to a serpent, was killed by wild animals, and buried under the mountain range that now bears her name.

• The Yorkshire Terrier is a small dog breed developed during the 19th century in Yorkshire, England, to catch rats in clothing mills. During World War II, a Yorkie named Smoky saved the lives of soldiers by dragging a communications cable through an 8-inch-wide, 60-footlong drainage culvert.

• The Chihuahua was named for the Mexican state of Chihuahua. The word means “dry sandy place.” The Chihuahua is the smallest of all purebred dogs. A Chihuahua named Milly at 3.8 inches tall (9.65 cm) is the world’s smallest dog. At the age of 2 years old, she weighed 1 pound (.45 kg). In a comparison of brain to body size ratio, the Chihuahua has the largest sized brain. The Taco Bell dog’s name was Gidget and she was in many commercials (not all for Taco Bell). She died in 2009 at the age of 15.

• The Bloodhound takes its name from the fact that it was bred to follow the trails of wounded animals. It has a keener sense of smell than any other breed and can pick up a scent from only one or two skin cells.

• “Ticking” is a strong white material used to cover and protect mattresses and pillows. The Bluetick Coonhound has a white coat underneath a network of black spots, and the overall effect makes the dog look like it’s covered by blue ticking. If a dog has a white coat with brown spots, it’s called red ticking. The Bluetick Coonhound was bred as a hunting dog in the Southeastern U.S. and was only recognized as an established independent breed in 1946 (continued on next page)

PAW’S CORNER

By Sam Mazzotta

WHY DO INDOOR CATS NEED LICENSE TAGS?

DEAR PAW’S CORNER: I received a notice from a city department that I have to buy a license for each of my cats. I get them vaccinated regularly, and they’re purely indoor cats, so why should I bother to pay for two license tags? -- Kate J., via email DEAR KATE: As I’ve written before, indoor pets can escape to the outdoors, which is why it’s a good idea to vaccinate them on schedule, as you’ve done. In cities and municipalities that require them, license tags provide additional identification in case your cats do get out.

Financially, it’s a good idea to go ahead and get the license tags. Several cities are cracking down on pet licensing. For example, Sacramento fines owners up toDid you hear about the family who got stuck $300 for ignoring notices to license their pets -- a on Peter Pan’s Flight for over 3 hours? steep increase over the initial cost of the license tags: Apparently, their vehicle would neverland. $20never per year for dogs, $10 for cats. Broward County, Florida, also has a $300 fine in place.

Chicago is sending out notices, as registration purchases dropped from 27,000 in 2011 to less than 13,000 in 2017. It offers licenses for 1- or 3-year terms. And Seattle fines unlicensed owners $125, with additional fines possible for offenses like “failure to display pet license tags” (an additional $54).

Cities locate unlicensed pets through vaccination records.R It’sL a bureaucratic and annoying, but O O T Dnecessity, OAN W M the tags aren’t that expensive, while the fines for not Home of “Mission to Mars,” “Space doing so can be.

O������ C�����’� Different Breed Each Week!

• Basset Hounds were bred for the purpose of pursuing rabbits, using their keen sense of smell to track them down. Only Bloodhounds have a better sense of smell than Basset Hounds do.

“Basset” comes from the French word “bas” for “low” and refers to the low-slung stature of the dog. It has the longest ears of any breed, with Bloodhounds a close second. The ears funnel scents to the nose. Because they are big-boned with heavy bodies and deep chests, they are poor swimmers.

• There are two types of Husky: the Siberian Husky and the Alaskan Malamute. The word “husky” started out in the mid-1800s as “hoskey dog” or “esky dog” which both refer to “Eskimo dog.” The Siberian Husky originated in northeastern Siberia and was bred by the Chukchi Eskimos of northeastern Asia to pull heavy loads long distances across rough terrain in difficult conditions with very little food and no warmth. They were also used to herd reindeer and as watchdogs. Huskies have a thick double coat that keeps them well insulated. Their undercoat is short and warm, while the overcoat is long and water-resistant. Their almond-shaped eyes allow them to squint to keep out snow.

• Pomerania is a region on the southern shore of the Baltic Sea in Central Europe, split between Germany and Poland. The name comes from the Slavic “po more” meaning “by the sea.”

It’s where the Pomeranian was bred. They were bred from the large sled dogs of the north, making them another breed closely related to wolves.

• The word “terrier” comes from the old French “chien terrier” meaning literally “earth dog.”

A cairn is a pile of rocks used to mark the way, from the Gaelic “carn” meaning “a heap of stones.” A cairn terrier was trained to flush small animals that live underneath and inside cairns. A cairn terrier named Terry played Toto in the 1939 film “The Wizard of Oz.” • The word “spaniel” comes from the Old French word “espaignol” meaning “Spanish dog.” Spaniels were bred as hunting dogs and have been around since the 14th century.

DOG BREEDS (cont’d) Today there are 25 different types of Spaniels.

One English breed was developed specifically for tracking woodcocks. These dogs are now known as Cocker Spaniels. Springer Spaniels were named for their ability to flush or “spring” game birds. King Charles Spaniels became popular due to their association with King Charles II of England, who ruled in the 1600s and had a fondness for the breed.

• The story goes that the Chinese word “tsa” means “mix” and is pronounced “chow” as in “chow mein” with “mein” meaning “noodles.”

The word “chow” also came to mean a meal, being a mix of food dishes. When dock workers were unloading ships laden with all sorts of Chinese goods, they referred to the cargo as “chow chow” meaning a mixed up mishmash of items. When they unloaded a breed of Chinese dogs, the dogs also were called Chow Chows. Other people claim that “chow chow” is Chinese for “puffy lion dog.” Chows are famous for having black tongues, but a Chow’s tongue is pink at birth.

• Cecil Rhodes was a British politician and businessman who bought up diamond mines in southern Africa, founded the DeBeers Diamond Company, worked to develop economic progress in Africa, and subsequently had a country named after him: Rhodesia. The country has since been split up and renamed, becoming Zambia and Zimbabwe. People working in Africa needed to protect their livestock from lions. They cross-bred European dogs with the dogs the local tribes used that were remarkable for the Mohawk-style ridge of backwardsfacing hair that lined their spine. The Rhodesian Ridgeback, a type of hound, can keep a lion at bay.

Select the right fertilizer for your needs For plants to truly flourish, the right growing conditions and soil that offers the right nutrients is of paramount importance. Fertilizer enhances soil so that plants and flowers can thrive. However, fertilizer is not a one-size-fits-all mix.

Choosing fertilizer can be a little overwhelming thanks to the variety of formulations available at neighborhood lawn and garden centers. Shelves contain all-purpose products, such as those billed as vegetable fertilizer, and even formulations geared toward specific flower varieties. Others may feature buzz words like “all-natural” or “organic,” and consumers may not be sure just what they need to keep plants healthy. The following guidelines can help any would-be gardener or landscaper grow more vibrant plants.

Start with a soil test It’s difficult to determine what plants need without an accurate picture of what’s going on in the ground.

A soil test can paint a picture of what’s going on and indicate if any nutrients are lacking. A common misconception is that gardeners fertilize plants. But fertilizer amends the soil that feeds plants, according to the soil-testing lab professionals at Virginia Tech.

Soil types vary by region, and conditions may even vary between spots on a landscape. Testing where the plants will be placed can yield the most accurate results. Soil tests are available at gardening centers and online. Otherwise, landscaping professionals can conduct tests.

Know the N-P-K ratio Most fertilizers will come with information concerning the nutrients within. Most notably it will have a breakdown of how much nitrogen (N), phosphorous (P) and potassium (K) is in the mix. Judging by the soil test, gardeners can choose a product that will give them the right ratio to amend the soil for the type of plant they are hoping to grow. Complete fertilizers often have NPK in the formulation. Incomplete fertilizers may (coninued on page 5 far right column)

‘Jeweled’ Porcelain

The “jeweled” Coalport porcelain of the late 19th century attracts buyers with its beauty and unfamiliar beading, but few know the history of the porcelain.

Coalport porcelain was first made in England in 1795.

In the late 19th century, a new type of porcelain vases, teaware, boxes and other ornamental wares were created. It was hand decorated with small colored “beads” of glaze, as well as sections with simulated gems like moonstones or emeralds. These pieces were very

PHOTO CUTLINE: This round Coalport box with a lid may have been made to hold powder. It has turquoise “jewels” and a medallion. Price at auction, $461

expensive when compared to the useful wares made before that time. In 1895, Coalport was able to make the jeweled porcelains by a less-expensive method, and more pieces were sold.

Collectors have favored these pieces since the 1950s, and prices are high today. At a 2016 Skinner auction in Boston, which included over 60 pieces of this type of Coalport, a round covered box, just 2 1/2 inches in diameter, brought $461. The box has turquoise beading and a central medallion. A two-handled shaped bowl with a cover sold for about $1,000 at the same sale. *** Back in the day, many brides selected a pattern of sterling-silver flatware. Today those sets of silver aren’t used and are a problem for the families that inherit them. This is the dilemma I am facing. How do we get rid of the flatware? I have two sets of sterling silver flatware and additional items. How do I find a reliable and safe way to sell the flatware, either for the value of the set or for the value of the silver? I have a set of Meadow Rose by Wallace and a set of Oneida’s Damask Rose. I also have miscellaneous pieces such as salt and pepper, candlesticks and cutlery.

OSCAR MAYER HOT DOGS

The Old Chapel Antique & Artisan Market

172 Robinson St. N. Tonawanda Located in the former Ascension Church

• Oscar Mayer was 14 when he left Germany and came to America in 1859. As a young man he spent six years working for the Armour meat company in Chicago.

• Meanwhile, his older brother Gottfried was becoming successful making sausages and hams in Germany. Oscar convinced his older brother to join him in Chicago, and together they leased the failing Kolling Meat Market.

They sold German favorites bratwurst and liverwurst to the predominantly German neighbors that surrounded their market.

• Five years later, it was a thriving success. It was so successful that the owner refused to renew their lease because he wanted to run the business himself.

• The two brothers borrowed $10,000 and opened a new meat market two blocks away, naming it after Oscar, and the Kolling Meat Market went out of business within a year.

• The brothers sent to Germany for a third brother, Max, who became their bookkeeper.

By 1900 they had 43 employees.

• Soon other area meat markets were stealing Oscar’s recipes but using inferior meats to create knock-off products. In response, Oscar Mayer began wrapping packages of hot dogs with a yellow band that bore the company name and an inspection stamp. This set their hot dogs apart from all other hot dogs, which bore no markings at all. They wanted people to ask for their product by name. The yellow band is still part of the company’s logo and appears on their packaging.

• When the U.S. government implemented the Federal Meat Inspection Act in 1906, many meat companies fought the legislation and even denied inspectors access to their facilities. But Oscar Mayer became an early supporter of the bill, claiming it had nothing to hide. (continued next page)

A:

Sterling silver is always worth at least the meltdown value, and there are shops that buy silver and gold to melt down, but you also can sell silver flatware to a matching service.

have only one or two nutrients. This allows a person to customize fertilizer even more without overdoing it with a particular nutrient.

Grow plant knowledge A cursory knowledge of the plants being planted in the garden also can be helpful. Gardeners must recognize that some plants will not tolerate excess amounts of a particular fertilizer component, while some may need more. Checking books out of the library, seeking information online and consulting with landscaping experts will help expand homeowners’ knowledge about plant types and the needs of each particular plant they hope to grow.

Solid and liquid fertilizer Fertilizers are generally sold in pellets, spikes and liquid forms. Pellets or granules are dispersed over large areas and will gradually offer nutrients when the soil is watered. Liquid fertilizer is concentrated and fast-acting. These may be used for container plants or smaller areas. Spikes usually are placed in houseplants or to feed individual trees or shrubs. Depending on the formulation, fertilizer may need to be reapplied once a month or more. Consult the product packaging for the correct application advice.

Fertilizer amends soil to grow stronger, more resilient plants.

HIDDEN TOBIES IN ISSUE #42 There were 5 Tobies total hiding in the ads.

(cont’d) • In 1924 Oscar Mayer introduced a novel product: packaged pre-sliced bacon, for which they received a patent.

• In 1936 they had an automobile built that was shaped like a hot dog, and they hired a midget to drive it to events, billing it as “the world’s smallest chef driving the world’s biggest hot dog.” Although many pint-size actors played the part, the very first one they hired was Meinhardt Raabe, who played the part of Little Oscar for several years and then headed to Hollywood where he landed the one and only film role of his career: as the munchkin coroner in “The Wizard of Oz” who declares the Wicked Witch of the East “really most sincerely dead.”

• Raabe claimed to have been the person who suggested that Oscar Mayer sell sausages in tin cans so that the product would appear in two different places in the supermarket: the meat aisle and the canned goods aisle. Production began just at the start of World War II. The U.S. Government immediately realized that canned sausages were perfect for feeding hungry soldiers in the field, and almost the entire production was diverted to the war effort. This exposed many soldiers to Oscar Mayer products and ensured the continuing success of the brand.

• Today there are six Weinermobiles and one Weinie-Bago on the road, generally driven by college students.

• Oscar’s nephew Carl Mayer asked himself, “A giant hot dog was a hit, so why not a tiny one?”

In 1958 every package of hot dogs came with a hot-dog shaped whistle. The whistles are still very popular today, with about 200,000 handed out every year.

• By the time Oscar Mayer died at the age of 95 in 1955, his company employed thousands of people. It’s now owned by KraftHeinz.

• Each area code had either a number “1” in the middle that denoted a region that had several area codes, or a “0” in the middle meaning the region had only a single area code. This made it easy for early computers to distinguish between long-distance and local calls. By leaving out numbers higher than 1 on the second digit, that meant that numerous area codes would be available in the decades to come. Similar area codes were separated by as many miles as possible such as Oregon’s 503 and Florida’s 305.

• The first area code was put into use when New Jersey’s 201 area code went into effect in 1951. On November 10, 1951, the official rollout of area codes took place. With an audience of over 100 dignitaries and reporters, Englewood Mayor M. Leslie Denning dialed the ten-digit number of the mayor of Alameda, California. It took 17 seconds for the call to go through, and it happened without the assistance

• Over the next decade, the plan steadily advanced until the entire nation had area codes in 1964.

• The new system made it easy to route calls across the nation, then to regions of the network, and finally to local networks.

• In the beginning, there were 86 area codes, but the system could grow up to 152 potential area codes before a new digit would need to be inserted in the area code.

• Today, there are over 300 area codes in use.

It’s estimated that the current ten-digit plan will be feasible until the year 2038, when phone numbers may need to become 11 digits long instead of 10.
